SPANISH state prosecutors are seeking a jail sentence of just two and a half years for the son of a British multi-millionaire who confessed to killing a mum-of-three in a drunken hit-and-run while on bail over the disappearance of a pretty blonde feared dead.

Westley Capper, 39, has been told the ‘blood money’ he is paying to his victim’s family has been taken into account in their decision not to press for a longer prison term.

Essex-born former public schoolboy Capper confessed after his arrest to knocking down restaurant worker Fatima Dorado, 40, on a zebra crossing in his property developer dad John’s Bentley while he was high on cocaine and nearly two times the drink-drive limit.

He fled the scene as she lay dying before being held in an Indian restaurant where he had just downed a vodka and tonic.

Capper was out on bail but banned from leaving Spain when he caused Bolivian immigrant Mrs Dorado’s violent death because he was being investigated over the September 6 2014 disappearance of a British businessman’s girlfriend from a popular Costa del Sol nightclub.

Agnese Klavina’s family and friends tried unsuccessfully to have him remanded in custody before Mrs Dorado’s violent death.

Capper, now living near the swanky resort of Puerto Banus, lost a recent appeal to avoid prosecution for aggravated unlawful detention over Latvian-born Agnese’s disappearance from celeb club Aqwa Mis.

The nightspot in Marbella is where the likes of Hollywood star Eva Longoria have partied and Towie star Jake Hall nearly lost a kidney in a violent fight.

No date for either of the two trials Capper faces has yet been set.

An indictment shows state prosecutors will call for the Brit to receive a two-year, six-month prison sentence and a three-year, six-month driving ban for Mrs Dorado’s May 9 2016 manslaughter when the case gets to court.

Under Spanish law he could be sentenced to a total of four-and-a-half years for killing her while under the influence of drink and drugs.

The indictment states he failed to stop in time because he was doing nearly double the 25mph speed limit and the alcohol and cocaine he had consumed “prevented him from driving normally and turned him into a serious risk for other road users”.

Mrs Dorado, who lived with builder husband Tomas Ramirez and their one-year-old baby daughter Katherine, died in hospital hours after being knocked down on the zebra crossing in San Pedro near Marbella.

Capper’s defence lawyer Jorge Hoz revealed after Capper was remanded in prison for the fatal hit-and-run - before his release on bail three months later - that he had confessed during a private court quiz to hitting her after bingeing on drink and drugs.

State prosecutors are understood to have agreed to go easy on the Brit expat because he made a full confession early on and has paid his victim’s family compensation.

The indictment reveals he paid £8,500 towards her repatriation and funeral costs and since June 2016 has paid her widower nearly £950 a month to cover her lost salary.

Fatima’s shell-shocked husband told after her death how generous Fatima sent hundreds of pounds back to her hometown of Santa Cruz in Bolivia every month to help fund the studies of her teenage children Sebastian, 15 at the time, and Carla, 19.

He admitted: “We have fallen on hard times as both the family in Bolivia and our livelihood here really depended on Fatima’s income.”

Speaking before Capper handed over cash to the family, he added: “I cannot understand how he has shown absolutely no remorse, has not reached out to the family and clearly has no conscience whatsoever.

“It really puzzles me. What a heartless person he must be.”

Mr Hoz, who is representing Capper in the case of missing Agnese Klavina as well as Fatima Dorado’s manslaughter, said hours after the hit-and-run: “He is repentant, ashamed and demoralised.

“He’s conscious of the fact he’s taken a human life.

“He’s admitted what he’s done and he understands he will have to pay the consequences.”

Capper told his lawyer he went out drinking before hitting the mum of three after a Spanish court probing him over Agnese’s disappearance turned down his appeal to be allowed to travel Britain briefly to see relatives.

Capper claimed early on in the investigation he dropped Agnese off near a flat she was staying at for the summer close to the home of former England manager Fabio Capello.

Porter, from Liverpool, says he fell asleep on the back seat of a Mercedes they left the club in before the drop-off.

They were told they were being prosecuted for aggravated unlawful detention after a damning report from a specialist Madrid police team.

It endorsed the findings of an earlier local police report, which included the claims of a Cracker-style criminal psychologist who studied CCTV footage from Aqwa Mist’s car park and concluded Agnese’s facial expressions and body language showed she did not leave the club voluntarily.

The police files also contain CCTV images showing three unidentified men dragging a large suitcase on to Capper’s motorboat.

The vessel left a port near Marbella soon after Agnese, girlfriend of former London club owner Michael Millis, vanished. It was seized by police in Cartagena 300 miles away before being swept by forensic experts for DNA.

Fernando Scornik, one of the lawyers representing Agnese’s family, has made the blunt admission he fears she is dead and her body has not been found despite a fingertip search of the Costa del Sol because she is “at the bottom of the sea”.

A third man who worked as a doorman at Aqwa Mist is also facing trial.

Aqwa Mist is a summer favourite of Premier League footballers and Hollywood star Eva Longoria, American actor and singer Terence Howard and boxer Amir Khan have also partied there since its opening in June 2012.

Towie star Jake Hall, 26, almost lost a kidney there after being stabbed with a broken bottle last May when he was caught up in a wild nightclub fight between two rival gangs of Brits.
